Little Girl


Dear Little Girl,
It's time we have a serious conversation. Special is what you are and strong is what you'll become. Little girl, it's okay to cry and show emotion. The hell you're going through now will build character and strength later in life. You know hurt and pain all too well. Your mind will play tricks on you and make you feel less than, but know deep down you're worthy.

You'll hide your true feelings by drowning yourself in work and motherhood because this is a conversation you avoided for years. Little girl, you'll experience abusive relationships with  narcissist that prey on your bruised and battered love wounds. They'll smell it a mile away. You'll hold on to false hope and they'll give you just enough to hang onto. Your men of choice find pleasure in building you up only to watch you fall apart. This is one of the toughest battles you'll endure but you're strong enough without a doubt to break the cycle.

The cycle will cause you to feel as if you're losing it at times but little girl, please hold on. They'll call you crazy and say you're over reacting but you're justified in your actions because they'll push you to that point. Little girl, becoming complacent in mentally abusive relationships is dangerous. Get out and have the courage to move on. Don't forget what you're made of and what you deserve. Be strong in your period of waiting. Stop rescuing others and save yourself. Dear little girl, it will all be okay. You're stronger than you think. Keep fighting.

Why Are You Single?

As I'm sitting at work chatting with coworkers about life, I get asked the dreadful question. Breezy, why are you single? I wish I had some profound text book answer for them or hell, five dollars for every time I was asked by people in general. The answer is simple. I just wont settle! Being a single mother dating in 2018 is as complicated as trying to read Mike Tysons lips with your tv muted. Although I’ve struggled with self-image in the past, I’m in a much better place mentally and physically and know my worth. That alone is a powerful weapon. I often look at my friends and family members and think to myself….am I really the only one who doesn’t have a significant other? When will it be my season?
As quickly as those thoughts creep into my head I try to shake them away with positive affirmations. See, I grew up in the church and understand that there’s power of life and death in the tongue. My prayers for my future husband are very detailed and I know deep down, the man that h…

Just So You Know

Time is such a precious thing. As a single mom in my late 20s, I’m very selective in how I choose to spend my time. When it comes to dating, there’s a few things I’d like men to understand. Dating a single mom isn’t a science. It’s actually common sense. Below are some of the most important things I need my future prospect to grasp before asking me out…
We’re A Package Deal- My son is my world. You can’t have me without having him. It’s been the two of us for the last seven years. He’s extremely bright and picks up on bull fairly quicklyso I feed off of him as well. Not only are you dating me, but you’re dating us.If you can’t see yourself taking family trips, having family game night, or watching cartoons then we’re not for you honey.
Your Intentions Must Be Clear – As we’re getting to know each other understand that your actions must match your words. To be honest I am not interested in friendships being this close to 30. I have work friends, family friends and patient friends. That’…

Don't Be So Negative

I look at myself as being a pretty darn good mother in general. Society created the label of “single” mothers. Since when did my relationship status have anything to do with my parenting skills? Whether I had a partner or not, the values I instill in my son would be the same. I think they’re e a lot of misconceptions that people have about single mothers in general. Why can’t we just be great at raising our children? Are we allowing these negative connotations to dictate what we’re capable of?
As a single mother, I wish society would understand that we’re some of the strongest human beings ever. People that play multiple roles at once usually get paid big bucks to perform. I can assure you though that I’m no Tyler Perry nor Eddie Murphy and I take my payments for performing in mommy I love yous and sticky-face kisses. We had the choice to take the easier way out and continue with our lives but we chose to do what was right and take care of our responsibility. Just because we’re single …
